Is it possible to extend datastore in esxi5.1

Dear team,

I have a size of 1 to and Production data store virtual machines are stored on the same.

Now we intend to increase the data even store up to 1.5 TB (need ways to add additional 500 GB in the existing data store, instead of taking the logical unit number and create the new data store). If we inform storage team to extend the existing lun from 1 TB to 1.5 TB and they do what is necessary for their purpose and we confirm 'Rise' buttong if I try to extend the same, it will affect running virtual machines if I extend without turning off a virtual computer and there will be data loss if storage and expand the data store.

Need your help on the same.

concerning

Mr. VMware

    My menu is at the bottom of the page and there is no space to lay down.

    As it has already been mentioned that you can achieve this by using a tab panel widget or composition.

    In addition, you can use this menu widget, try turning the widget which will give you the options of the menu upwards.

    Option 2.  1 take time to stop machine virtual those residing on tis datastore.

  • It is possible to extend the rectangle to the browser only one side?

    I would 100% width effect, but only on the left.  Is this possible?

    @afoxperson

    Someone asked a question similar here earlier. There is no method to create a rectangle that extends 100% on one side. The work around I gave was to use a background fill. My answer is in the following link. For your question, you can make a png file with a color on one side and one transparency on the other.

    Re: Extend areas of color across the width of the browser

    I hope this helps.

  • Possible details extended query on the PowerCLI data store?

    Hello

    Using the vSphere client, there is a way to view the properties of a data store (on the Configuration tab, storage) where it shows the measure information which includes information on the LUN UUID. Is it possible to display the same information in PowerCLI? Here's what I'm trying to do - given to a data store, I want to identify the storage device which is holding, using preferably something unique like the UUID. In the case of EMC devices at least, it contains the WWN of the device, so we can answer so far with the information of storage visible to the SAN. I walked in get-datastore objects. opinion of the GET, but none of them seem to expose this.

    Thank you

  • Is it possible to extend the time-out of release of app?

    My application must save the State of closure project, so I'm handles the NAVIGATOR_EXIT message and start my save shared storage then.

    The problem is, the project files can be quite large (up to 10 MB) based on the content of the user and because the app has ~ 500ms to exit before the system with force to stop him, I run into cases where automatic registration fails to complete. I can handle the case of the file does not completely recorded at the start of the next time, but it means a bad user experience because they will potentially have lost their jobs.

    The API reference says that an application can call navigator_extend_timeout() to allow up to 30 years create the window. I would like to know if there is an equivalent to extend the forced timeout app closed the same way or something equivalent?

    I have 30 seconds, just need 1-2 more... even if it is performed in the background at low priority without window at this time.

    It is a feature under the BPS.

    It will be available in a future release.

    Please stay tuned!
